Now that's a muscle car

 

Does it even lift?

 

thanks, mine needs some cosmetic love tho lol. rally's and novanator's look nice.

havent ran it with NOS yet. im sure it will if she hooks good. plan on hooking up the NOS when i get a house back in DE. unfortunately im trying to sell my house in maryland which is where the nova stays until i can buy a place in DE. so not much work can get done to it there.

 

Did you read how I painted it? I sold it to get my G5. I only have the white one left. If I get some money saved up I want to go all-out forged on the 307 in it. Crank, rods, custom pistons. Then get some 58cc heads from a 305 and a Comp xe268 cam and see what it can do. After it's broken in I'll add twin turbos and boost the **** outta it. Should be a fun project for the rest of my life haha

 

and some fun for the hell of it. had some spare tires to waste haha.

 

Absolutely love Novas. Wish I could get my hands on a 71 or a 72 one day soon.

 

We won a street stock championship at Seekonk years ago with a nova.

 

yea i will be boosting her one day, obviously not this engine though as the compression is WAY too high for it lol. im thinking TT big block and call it a day.

best body style in my opinion, my dad likes the duece but im not a fan of the boxy kinda look to it.

hellyeah! lol. nova FTW! >____<

 

lol seekonk


Im in the Escort (7T9)

 

nice to see some other X-Bodys! Bob this thread is 4.5 years old. im 26 now lol.

 

 

lol NICE! street stock, its turned into an organized rolling demo derby

 

That's a street stock and a charger, from back when chargers were required to have factory steel bodies and factory front clips. 91 maybe? 92?

 

yah, long ago now. now the street stock can use the modern nose, as long as the make of the nose matches the make of the engine.

 

Nice posi trac smoke show

 

this is where she sits now :/

 

 

Engine out?

 

yup. Going to do a full Restoration. bought the car form the origional owner. i have everything to do it.

 

Nice!~

 

me? thank you i decided to keep it short lol. i was at a school parking lot on easter lol. figured most people would be home with their family lol. so i went and burned some rubber instead took a while to clean the damn ass end off though -___- lol.

very nice. what engine is going in it? same one or building another to drop in? is this the one with the powerglide?

 

Original. 305 2bbl , 4 Speed Saginaw, 3.08 Open diff.

The car started out as a father son Project. id like to restore it and give it to him and build myself another

Car is a 1979 Nova Rally

I bought the car From the original Owners son after he died in 2001 for $1645, plus about $1000 to ship from WA to MA. i have the sales slip and the Plate frames from the dealer. i cant bring myself to cut this one up and make it what i want, so thats my plan. i would like ot build anothe r4th gen or a 66-67 Hardtop.

 

oh ok i thought u had the powerglide....or is that novanator? lol. sounds like a good deal and a good plan. all original.

 

Novanator has the 'Glide
